Best face wash I have ever used!!!

I have tried several other face washes over the years and have to switch for different seasons, but not with this product. I have sensitive and combination skin and fluctuates with the seasons, very dry in winter and oily in summer. It leaves your face soft, not too oily or dry and absolutely no breakouts, thank goodness.

Great after three uses

I've only used this face wash three times so far and already notice a significant improvement to my complexion. I'm one of those people who has used nearly everything in stores to combat acne with no luck. If a new product comes out, I buy it with fingers crossed. Only one thing has helped at all, but I still broke out. With this face was my breakouts have cleared up and my skin feels smoother.

Gentle and moisturizing!

I've been using most of the Recovery line for a few weeks now and my skin has never been happier. I suffer from rosacea and this plus the 1% BHA lotion and moisturizer have really helped a lot with redness, bumps, and dry patches. It works great with the Liz Earle muslin cloths too.

Buy this if you have rosacea

Love this and will buy it over and over! I have noticed a huge difference in my outbreaks since I started using this product. Does not dry out skin and removes all of my makeup. Will eventually try the whole line of products.

THE BEST CLEANSER EVER!

It's like washing your face with lotion...this is the best face wash in the world for dry skin. It lasts for a long time because and it's gentle enough to use day and night. It washes off my daily make up beautifully! Another Paula must have!

new every day cleanser

this stuff has really helped my parched winter skin recover from the awful arctic freeze that's taken over the north east. it's so gentle, but seriously works to remove makeup, and does not leave my skin feeling dry. i also love that the packaging protects the product from exposure to light and air. paula's choice is really legit when it comes to packaging - even though they don't look as cute as other products on the outside, it's what's the inside that counts!

So Soft and Effective

I have really dry skin and this cleanser feels so soft and creamy on my face. It is a pleasure to wash with. I also feel like it doesn't dry my face out but does cleanse it well. I will be repurchasing once I have run out.
